Methods, Systems, and Computer Readable Media for Network Testing Using an Emulated Data Center Environment

3. The method of claim 2 wherein the at least one traffic generator includes a first traffic generator implemented at the first network emulation platform and a second traffic generator implemented at the second network emulation platform.

4. The method of claim 2 wherein the test controller, the network emulation platforms, or other test system entities communicate via a test system application programming interface (API) or a related server.

5. The method of claim 4 wherein the test system API or the related server converts or translates higher-level instructions or data models into lower level instructions or data models for the network emulation platforms or the switches.

6. The method of claim 1 wherein the SUT includes a network node, a server, a network interface card, an application server, or a group of servers.

7. The method of claim 1 wherein the emulated data center environment includes a Clos network environment, a multi-stage network environment, or a multi-tier network environment.

8. The method of claim 1 wherein each of the sets of configuration instructions include instructions for configuring network visibility infrastructure components of a respective network emulation platform.

12. The system of claim 11 wherein the at least one traffic generator includes a first traffic generator implemented at the first network emulation platform and a second traffic generator implemented at the second network emulation platform.

13. The system of claim 11 wherein the test controller, the network emulation platforms, or other test system entities communicate via a test system application programming interface (API) or a related server.

14. The system of claim 13 wherein the test system API or the related server converts or translates higher-level instructions or data models into lower-level instructions or data models for the network emulation platforms or the switches.

15. The system of claim 10 wherein the SUT includes a network node, a server, a network interface card, an application server, or a group of servers.

16. The system of claim 10 wherein the emulated data center environment includes a Clos network environment, a multi-stage network environment, or a multi-tier network environment.

17. The system of claim 10 wherein each of the sets of configuration instructions include instructions for configuring network visibility infrastructure components of a respective network emulation platform.
